Job Description
We are seeking a senior transformation leader to modernize the operating model, workflows, platforms, and capabilities that enable our Global Brand organization to deliver work at global scale. As the Senior Director, Global Brand Management Systems & Operations, your mission is to strip out operational friction, drive global platform adoption, and lead the practical integration of AI, automation, and agent-enabled workflows to scale our brand's global impact. You will ensure our Brand teams globally have the workflows, tools, and capabilities required to operate with greater speed, clarity, consistency, and confidence while protecting our brand equity.
Reporting to the Vice President, Global Brand Management, this leader is responsible for improving how the Global Brand organization executes its work, from the platforms that support brand content and governance, to the workflows that move ideas from brief to market, to the practical use of AI within approved brand processes. This leader will own the Global Brand transformation roadmap for workflows, brand platforms, content systems, and approved AI use cases. They will define business requirements, prioritize use cases and pilots, establish adoption standards, recommend governance improvements, and provide executive visibility into progress, barriers, and value delivered. This leader will also help Global Brand move from individual tool adoption to connected, governed operating systems that improve how brand work is created, reviewed, scaled, and measured.
The Senior Director will lead a focused expert team and partner across Marketing, Product, Technology, Legal, Privacy, Creative, agencies, Sourcing, and regional teams to improve how work is planned, created, reviewed, approved, stored, reused, adapted, and scaled.
The ideal candidate has led transformation inside a large, complex marketing, brand, creative, content, or marketing operations environment. They know how enterprise marketing work actually gets done and have a record of improving workflows, platforms, governance, adoption, and organizational capability at scale.
The role is expected to improve speed to market, increase reuse of approved assets, reduce duplicative effort, strengthen content governance, and increase the value the organization receives from its brand platforms and approved AI capabilities.

• Serve as the Global Brand business lead for identifying, prioritizing, testing, and scaling approved AI use cases within brand workflows.

• Partner with Legal, Privacy, Security, Risk, and enterprise AI governance teams to translate approved AI standards into practical guidance, playbooks, and workflows for Global Brand teams.

• Shift organizational behavior by proving that new workflows, systems, and AI-enabled capabilities make the work better and faster, not simply cheaper.
• Lead transformation portfolio reporting, executive updates, cross-functional governance, and adoption scorecards that make progress, barriers, and business impact visible.
• Success will be measured by reduced workflow cycle time, increased platform adoption, improved asset reuse, reduced duplicate work, stronger content governance, practical adoption of AI-enabled and agent-enabled workflows, and improved stakeholder satisfaction.
